Hello:
I am running Windows Vista, Business edition.
I have installed Visual Studio 2005, plus SP1, plus the SP1 Vista patch.
When I install VG.NET, I get error 2869, and the installation does not complete.
I have searched the forum and didn't find any mentions of Vista, to my surprise. Am I the lucky first?

Turning off User Access Control got me through the install.

Hi Tim,
Thanks for posting that. You are not the first, but we have to change the installer. We may move away from MSI.

If you do not want to turn off User Access Control install from a command prompt with administrator rights.
Select Command Prompt in the Windows Start Search, right-click Run as administrator. Now change to the directory where the MSI package is located and execute it.

Hello Cargo,
Did you test this? We found a convoluted solution for fixing the installer but have not tested it yet.
Thanks,

Hello,
As mentioned by Cargo, running the MSI installer from Command Prompt started as an administrator, should do the trick. I got the package installed well when proceeding as described.
